Mumbai: Shahrukh Khan fans across the globe are eagerly waiting for the release of his much anticipated upcoming flick 'Raees', but the film's director Rahul Dholakia is already in awe of the superstar and is pouring praises over him for his remarkable performance in the movie.
Before the release of the film, scheduled on January 25, film's director talked to a leading media house and claimed that there is a strong reason why SRK is widely regarded as the 'King Khan'.
Appreciating SRK for getting in the character of 'Raees' so deep, Dholakia said, "I think SRK only chose to do the films he wants and he chose to do Raees."

Giving a perfect example of Shahrukh Khan's grip over the character, the film's director added, "We wrapped up shooting of one schedule of the film in June-July 2015 and SRK went back to shoot for 'Dilwale'. In January 2016, we gathered back and started shooting Raees again. From the very beginning while shooting a scene with Nawazuddin Siddiqui, he showed that he was still in the character."
"It had been seven months he was away from the movie and suddenly she surprised everyone by his performance," he said.
Well, Shahrukh Khan is the richest Bollywood star for a reason!
